Preparations
Preparing the Power Supply
You can power the camcorder using a battery pack or directly using the PD-E1 USB Power Adapter. If you
connect the USB power adapter to the camcorder while a battery pack is attached, the camcorder will draw
power from the power outlet.
Charging a Battery Pack
You can power the camcorder using the supplied BP-820 Battery Pack or the optional BP-828 Battery Pack.
Both battery packs are compatible with Intelligent System so you can check the approximate remaining battery
usage time (in minutes) on the screen. For more accurate readings, when using a battery pack for the first time,
charge it fully and then use the camcorder until the battery pack is completely depleted.
